I also work with electronics technology in a military direction. Many years
ago, when we were trying to use sound for tracking s.... , ah..., boats,
yea, that's it. One of the engineers was able to detect propeller noise
much better than others. It turned out that he had a hearing problem that
filtered out the higher frequency noise that blocked the sound of interest
from detection by others. There are single chip devices out there today
that can perform a complete spectral analysis.
I also agree that future beekeeping will include remote sensing devices.
I'm playing with some designs now, as a hobbyist. It is completely possible
today, but when will it become economical? I don't believe honey production
will be the driver.
